Default Quotes again-can't replace curly with straight

Hi,

I'm reviewing a Word 2003 SP1 document, and some of the apostrophes are
curved, some are straight. Worst of all, some of the end quotes are curved
wrong, and there are quite a few in this document (background-the document is
generated from AuthorIT, but I've been told that quote formatting is
determined by Word).

I've tried several approaches, including using the search and replace, but
am not confident I've found them all. The best bet seems to be to make them
all straight. But when I've tried changing them using the auto correct
function, nothing happens (I have unchecked the "replace straight with curly"
box).

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
